Full details
The Colorama LL CO182 is a professional-grade 2.72m x 11m Polar White paper background designed for photographers, set designers, and display artists who require a smooth, non-reflective surface for high-quality production. Its premium, fine-tooth texture ensures consistent color rendition and professional results, though users should be aware that it requires a dedicated support system for proper mounting and is intended for disposable use as it is paper-based.

How many people can fit in front of this backdrop?

Troubleshooting
The paper is starting to sag or ripple
Check the tension of your background support system and ensure the roll is mounted straight; store vertically when not in use.
Surface is reflecting too much light
Ensure your studio lights are positioned at an angle that avoids direct reflection; verify that no ambient light sources are hitting the paper directly.
Paper tears easily during use
Use gaffer tape on the back of the paper to reinforce high-stress areas if subjects are standing or walking on the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use this background, you must have an overhead background support system or a freestanding crossbar stand capable of holding the weight of a 2.72m roll. When not in use, store the roll vertically using the recommended `Colorgrip` (LL COPAPERGRIP) to prevent the paper from unrolling or bending. Keep the paper in a dry environment, as humidity can cause the paper to ripple or lose its structural integrity. Avoid contact with liquids or abrasive surfaces, and always handle the edges carefully to prevent small tears that may propagate across the roll during the shoot.
